What Can you Do With Recycled Food Cans?

What can you do with recycled food cans? Punch two holes in the back,
hang them on a bar secured to the wall, add twist ties through the holes to
tie to the bar, for a neat organizer, in your kitchen, on a shelf, or above your desk.

Glue fabric and trims to the cans, for sweet storage containers like the one
shown below. Decoupage the cans with paper, for a decorative desk organizers.
Finish the cans in fabrics, coat them with mod podge for unique candle holders.
Cans make great candle holders for use outside They keep the flame
from going out, and add a warm touch to a dinner table, or party. Even with
the new l.e.d. candles, cans add a warm glow creating an inviting atmosphere.
You may decorate the cans to match your party theme, or room colors.
Have your kids help create unique candle holders, or custom desk organizers for a family project.

For this one, I glued leather to the can, added the handmade fabric 

ribbon, then coated the fabric in Mod-podge afterward to make it water resistant.
